US President Donald Trump drew attention during Senator Lindsey Graham’s funeral after sharing a joke involving the US detention facility at Guantanamo Bay while paying tribute to the veteran Republican lawmaker.
Speaking at the memorial service at Washington National Cathedral, Trump recalled an anecdote about Graham listening to another senator explain patent law in what he described as “excruciating detail” during a flight, according to The Mirror US.
“Gleam in his eye, after being lectured on the excruciating details of patent law by a fellow senator during a flight, Lindsey declared that he had discovered a new form of enhanced interrogation and torture for the Guantanamo Bay area,” Trump said, according to the report. “He said this is really bad stuff and boring.”
